Boston Dynamics’ New Robot Is Our Future

Handle Robot

Automation is coming. Little by little, job by job, automation is coming and it’s getting better and better. I just came across this video of the Handle Robot loading stuff at a factory and I was slackjawed. This is the future .

I see videos like this and I think of all the dangerous jobs that can be automated. I think of disaster sites being excavated and rebuilt without endangering human lives. I think of dangerous mining work that can be done without miners. I think of exploration on other planets that humans can’t do themselves. I look at this Boston Dynamics video and I see the future.
